Interface AttributeOverrideContainer

All Superinterfaces:

IAdaptable, JpaContextNode, JpaNode, JptResourceTypeReference, Model, OverrideContainer

All Known Subinterfaces:

JavaAttributeOverrideContainer, JavaAttributeOverrideContainer2_0, OrmAttributeOverrideContainer

public interface AttributeOverrideContainer
extends OverrideContainer

Attribute override container. Used by entities, embedded mappings, and element collection mappings.

Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:

2.3

Method Detail

resolveOverriddenColumn

ReadOnlyColumn resolveOverriddenColumn(String attributeName)

Return the column of the mapping or attribute override for the specified attribute. Return null if it does not exist. This column mapping/attribute override will be found in the mapped superclass (or embeddable), not in the owning entity.

getOverrides

org.eclipse.jpt.common.utility.iterable.ListIterable<? extends ReadOnlyAttributeOverride> getOverrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the overrides, both specified and virtual.

Specified by:

getOverrides in interface OverrideContainer

getOverrideNamed

ReadOnlyAttributeOverride getOverrideNamed(String name)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the override with the specified name, whether specified or virtual.

Specified by:

getOverrideNamed in interface OverrideContainer

getSpecifiedOverrides

org.eclipse.jpt.common.utility.iterable.ListIterable<? extends AttributeOverride> getSpecifiedOverrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the specified overrides. The container has no API for adding or removing specified overrides. The container's virtual overrides are built according to the list of overridable attribute names returned by the container's parent. Specified overrides can be created via VirtualOverride.convertToSpecified(). Specified overrides can be remvoed via Override_.convertToVirtual().

Specified by:

getSpecifiedOverrides in interface OverrideContainer

getSpecifiedOverride

AttributeOverride getSpecifiedOverride(int index)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the specified override at the specified index.

Specified by:

getSpecifiedOverride in interface OverrideContainer

getSpecifiedOverrideNamed

AttributeOverride getSpecifiedOverrideNamed(String name)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the specified override at the specified index.

Specified by:

getSpecifiedOverrideNamed in interface OverrideContainer

getVirtualOverrides

org.eclipse.jpt.common.utility.iterable.ListIterable<? extends VirtualAttributeOverride> getVirtualOverrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the virtual overrides (i.e. those not specified).

Specified by:

getVirtualOverrides in interface OverrideContainer

convertOverrideToVirtual

VirtualAttributeOverride convertOverrideToVirtual(Override_ specifiedOverride)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Convert the specified specified override to virtual. Return the new override.

Specified by:

convertOverrideToVirtual in interface OverrideContainer

convertOverrideToSpecified

AttributeOverride convertOverrideToSpecified(VirtualOverride virtualOverride)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Convert the specified virtual override to specified. Return the new override.

Specified by:

convertOverrideToSpecified in interface OverrideContainer
